Ingredients

  • 3 cups cooked chicken chopped
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 10 ounces Rotel
  • 10.75 ounces cream of chicken soup
  • 10.75 ounces corn canned, drained
  • 1 ounce package powdered Fiesta Ranch dressing
  • 10 ounces Dorito Nacho chips
  • 2 cups Mexican cheese shredded

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350° and spray a 9x13 baking dish with -cooking spray.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, Rotel, soup, corn, and fiesta ranch dressing mix.
  • Stir to combine.
  • Fold in the cooked chicken and mix to combine.
  • In the bottom of the prepared baking dish, add a handful of crushed chips.
  • Spread the chicken mixture over the chips in an even layer.
  • Crumble the remaining chips over the top of the chicken mixture. Top with cheese.
  • Cover with foil and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and serve with your favorite toppings like sour cream, salsa, diced tomatoes, cilantro and jalapeños.
  • Enjoy!

Notes

  • You can cook the chicken before using in the recipe or for easier prep, use a rotisserie chicken from the deli. I like to keep cooked chicken breasts in the freezer for just this purpose.
  • I prefer shredded chicken in this dish but cubed works well too.
  • You can put the cheese before the chips if you want your chips to stay a little crunchier.
  • Top with your favorite taco toppings: sour cream, salsa, diced tomatoes, cilantro and jalapeños.
  • To crush Doritos or tortilla chips, place in a Ziplock bag and crush by hand, but do not crush too small.
  • Spray foil with cooking spray prior to covering so it doesn't stick to the cheese
  • Taco seasoning would be tasty in this dish if you'd like to swap out for the ranch.
  • For added protein, add in drained kidney or black beans.
  • Be sure to drain the can of corn prior to adding into chicken mixture.
